Solo travel
This is my second time visiting Taitung. Taitung is very friendly for solo travelers, whether it's the local residents or the routes (I'm terrible with directions and still had no problems 😆). It's a place to get away from the noisy city, say goodbye to a busy mind, and find a place where your heart can settle. The peaceful east coast, riding alone on Route 11, with mountains on the left and the sea on the right, gives a feeling of being protected, which moved me and made me feel very at ease....
